How can you satisfy environmental groups whilst digging an oil field?
You put together an Environmental Plan that examines all the environmental issues and impacts. It will detail what mitigation and rectification/restoration measures you will put in place and then discuss it with the local authorities and the NGO’s (Non Governmental Organisations) They will then decide whether you have selected the best commercially possible environmental options. The issues can become very complicated. However, if you are genuinely interested go to: http://www.ipieca.org/ for some more detailed information.
